SEMINARIES AND COLLEGES

Requests and Memorials
None of our requests are really new, but they have become :
more urgent and, in some cases, more extensive since the synodica] :
conventions of 1944 and 1947 because of the unprecedented enroll. °
ment of future teachers needed for Synod’s program of Christian
education and because of sharply risen building costs.

I. We respectfully request that the sum of $200,000 for a new
Music Building, allowed by the synodical convention of 1947 and
raised by the Board of Directors of Synod to $275,000 because
of increased building costs, as well as the $100,000 allowed by
the Board of Directors for musical instruments and equipment,
be released, so that the contract can be let and the construction
can begin at the earliest possible moment.

IL. Other requests are presented in the form of separate memorials;
A. Additional Funds for Equipment for the New Music Building.
B. Additional Music Classrooms.

C. Completion of the New Dormitory for Women by Adding the
North Wing.
. Repeated Request for an Auditorium.
. Remodeling of the Old Music Building as an Addition to the
Administration Building.
| Continued Remodeling of the Older Dormitories.
. Repeated Request for Additional Professorships to Replace
Some of the Temporary Instructorships.

Nebr., for the past three years we find it very difficult to limit our-
selves to a few pages. “The Lord hath done great things for us,
whereof we are glad.” There are very many things which God
has done for and through our college and high school, and excellent
opportunities which He has opened up for us about which we
would like to tell Synod. But we shall limit ourselves to the
essentials. : . ‘
